How Does SCHD Fare Vs. The SPY And Other Yield Plays?

  • SCHD has large net overweights to the Energy (especially upstream O&G), Industrials and Consumer Staples sectors vs the S&P500. SCHD's industrials overweight may not be favorable given contracting US Manufacturing PMI data. I don't like how SCHD has zero exposure to some of the SPY's Top 10 Magnificent 7 stocks I am bullish on; NVIDIA, Microsoft and Amazon.
